EXPLANATION    OF   CLASSIFICATION. 


The  following  classification  is,  in  the  main,  that  devised  b\r  Mr.  John  Edmands  for  the 
Mercantile  Library  of  Philadelphia.  To  him,  therefore,  the  merits  of  the  system  must  be 
credited.  Any  defects,  on  the  other  hand,  that  may  be  noted,  may  properly  be  ascribed  to 
the  modifications  thought  necessary  in  applying  the  system  to  a  smaller  and  somewhat 
different  class  of  library. 

The  central  idea  of  the  system  is  not  a  precise  nor  scientific  division,  but  a  grouping  of 
the  library  into  primary  and  secondary  classes,  which,  without  being  so  general  as  to  become 
unwieldy,  should  not  be  so  specific  as  to  necessitate  a  book  being  placed  on  two  different 
shelves  at  the  same  time.  Nor  in  the  arrangement  has  a  logical  order  been  aimed  at,  so 
much  as  one  that  should  be  convenient  in  practical  operation.  The  technical  has  only 
occasionally  been  preferred  to  the  popular  term,  and  usuall}'  the  popular  teriti  also  has  been 
added  by  way  of  explanation.  The  very  full  index  (pages  8  seq. )  should  direct  any 
incjuirer,  however  unscientific,  to  the  class  under  which  his  topic  may  be  found  treated. 

The  primary  classes  are  twenty-three  (for  the  present  twenty-two)  in  number,  designated 
by  the  capital  letters  A,  B.  C,  etc.  (except  Prose  Fiction — see  below.)  The  combination  of 
these  letters  with  a  series  of  small  letters  (a,  b,  c,  etc.)  designate  the  sub-classes  (Ab,  Ac,  etc.). 
Of  these  latter  there  are  at  present  some  one  hundred  and  seventy-five.  But  as  in  the  com- 
binations certain  small  letters  have  been  omitted  (viz:  j,  m,  all  vowels,  and  all  those  involving 
repetitions,  as  Aa,  Bb,  Cc),  this  number  may  be  enlarged  when  necessary.  As  there  are  only 
primary  and  secondar\r  classes,  no  class  is  so  small  as  to  require  more  than  two  letters,  the 
capital  and  the  small  letter. 

The  books  in  each  sub-class  are  placed  on  the  shelves  in  alphabetical  order,  Dy  the 
names  of  the  authors  (excepting  in  biography  —  see  below);  or  if  the  author  is  unknown,  they 
are  arranged  according  to  the  titles. 

The  scheme  for  numbering  the  books  (pasje  29)  consists  of  the  assignment  of  one  thousand 
numbers  (0  to  999)  to  each  of  the  sub-classes,  and  the  distribution  of  all  the  names  of 
authors  over  the  whole  range  of  numbers.  A  reference  to  the  table  determines  what  number 
should  be  assigned  to  any  author  added  to  the  class.  It  follows  that  that  author  will  have 
the  same,  or  nearly  the  same,  number  in  whatever  class  his  works  be  fou-id. 

Thus,  J.  S.  Mill  would  have  a  number  between  591  and  600  in  Political  Economy  (Wb), 
and  also  in  Political  Science  (W),  or  Philosophy  of  Religion  (Xb).  Several  volumes  by  the 
same  author  in  the  same  sub-class  are  designated  by  a  decimal  to  the  right  of  the  author 
number  (Wb591.1,  etc.). 

In  the  department  of  Biography  all  general  works  and  collections  of  lives  have  been  put 
into  one  group — L*,  arranged  as  in  other  sub-classes,  by  author,  etc.  Individual  biographies 
are  arranged  in  twenty -six  sub-groups,  according  to  the  names  of  the  subjects  of  the  biog- 
raphies,— the  persons  whose  lives  are  written.  These  are  designated  by  the  capital  letter  L, 
and  a  small  letter  which  is  the  initial  of  the  person  whose  life  is  written.  In  each  of  these 
groups,  therefore,  the  books  are  arranged  on  the  shelves  in  alphabetical  order,  not  by  name 
of  author,  but  by  that  of  the  subject  of  the  biography,  thus  bringing  all  the  lives  of  any  one 
person  together  on  the  same  shelf.      The  successive  volumes  of  the  lives  of  such  an  individual 


*An  exception  to  this  are  the  lives  of  Artists,  where  joined  with  historical  or  critical  estimate  of  their  work.;. 
These  have  been  classed  with  the  Fine  Arts  (Tcj. 


269039 


MINNEAPOLIS    1-riJLIC  LIBRARY. 


are  designated  by  a  decimal.  The  class  of  Individual  Biography  is  so  large  as  to  require  a 
basis  of  10,000,  instead  of  1,000,  for  the  numbering  scheme.  Lives  of  J.  S.  Mill,  e.  g.,  would 
be  some  number  between  Lm5921  and  Lm.V.ilo. 

All  the  novels  have  been  arranged  in  twenty-six  groups,  those  whose  writers'  nanus  begin 
with  A  forming  one  group,  those  beginning  with  1'.  another,  and  so  on  throughout  the  alphabet. 
These  initial  letters  are  placed  on  the  books  in  connection  with  the  numbers,  and  serve  also 
to  distinguish  the  several  groups.  The  authors  in  each  of  these  groups  are  arranged,  so  far 
as  possible,  in  alphabetical  order,  and  numbered  1.  2,  3,  etc.,  these  numbers  preceding  the 
letter;  and  the  individual  books  of  each  author  are  placed  in  alphabetical  order  by  their  titles. 
In  this  department  no  Utter  or  other  character  is  used  as  a  general  designation  of"  the  class, 
the  method  of  numbering  and  the  form  of  the  label  (oval  instead  of  stmare)  being  sufficient 
to  distinguish  the  books  from  those  of  any  other  class. 

The  Juveniles  will  not  as  yet  he  grouped  as  a  separate  class.  They  will  be  found,  for  the 
most   part,   under    I 'rose    Fiction,  or  grouped    according   to   subject,  as    History,    Travels,   etc. 

Tin-  classification  is  not  merely  that  used  on  the  shelves,  but  for  the  present  will  be  that 
used  in  the  SUBJECT  Card  CATALOGUE  also  (which  will  thus  form  an  exact  miniature  of  the 
shelves*,  and  in  the  PRINTED  FINDING  List,  so  soon  as  issued.  The  AuTHOB  Card  CATALOGl  I 
will  group  under  a  single  head  all  the  works  in  the  Library  by  any  given  author. 

Presuming,  then,  a   reader  wishes  : 

1.  To  find  what  books  the  Library  contains  by  a  given  author:  Let  him  look  under  that 
AUTHOR'S  name  in  the  AUTHOR  CARD  CATALOGUE.     Or, 

2.  To  find  what  books  the  Library  contains  on  a  given  TOPIC  :  Let  him  look  for  that  TOPIC 
in  the  INDEX,  note  the  CLASS  under  which  it  is  grouped,  and  refer  to  that  CLASS  in  the  SUB- 
JECT CARD  CATALOGUE  or  PRINTED  FINDING  LIST.*      Or, 

3.  To  find  whether  the  Library  Contains  a  book  with  a  given  TITLE:  Let  him  consider  the 
LEADING  SUBJECT  or  TOPIC  TREATED  by  the  hook,  and  refer  to  that  in  the  INDEX. 

The  primary  classes  are  as  follows:
